A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

I was just at The Twisted Spine a few weeks ago for @maryrobinettekowal.com and @sentencebender.bsky.social’s book launch. They’re a wonderful brand new store that got hit hard by last week’s storm.

Benny’s Brown Bag is one of the best sandwich shops in Peekskill and they dressed up as Bennyhana for Halloween.
They did a special menu of spring rolls and fried rice. It was delicious.

I followed Luna to the window to see what she was cackling about and there were cardinals, woodpeckers, juncos, tufted titmice and chickadees in the dogwood. It’s a gorgeous fall day.

Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet.
After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵

The second pair of pinholes from the Radio Telescope.
Understanding that exposure was steady at about 25 seconds allowed me to start fiddling about with bit of glass in front of the pinhole. More in ALT
I’d like to take photos that look like what the object does, or what the object sounds like.
